    Justerini & Brooks Tasting note

    A blend of Nebbiolo from Arborina and Barbera from Larigi, aged in 100% new oak barriques for 18 months. The Nebbiolo component is the dominant partner adding both precision and density. Perfumed notes of rose, blueberry and strawberry with overtones of spice and salt on the finish.

    Antonio Galloni,
    Vinous
    The 2014 La Villa is supple and inviting. The 60% Barbera/40% Nebbiolo blend works nicely within the context of the year. The dark tonalities of Barbera fruit with the aromatics and tannic underpinning of Nebbiolo yield an attractive, mid-weight wine to drink now and over the next handful of years.
